I’ve said it before, and I’ll say it again… Allison is just the sweetest! Going back through and editing her bridal portraits made me so happy to relive this day. If the definition of a #nicholelaurenbride were to show up in the dictionary, I’m fairly certain Allison’s picture would be right there next to it. […]

Juliet and Tyler are just one of those couples that makes you feel completely comfortable as soon as you meet them. Their interaction with each other is so natural and effortless that you can’t help but love third-wheeling with them, and I think that’s why this worked out so well. I had so much fun […]

Preparing for portrait sessions can be tricky and may even seem downright intimidating. I know. I want my clients to be prepared, so today I’m introducing a new Client Education blog series. And it kicks off today!! I’m answering the most frequently asked question, “What should I wear to my session?” If you’re anything like […]

It didn’t take long after this cute couple walked up to my booth at the bridal show this past Fall for us to become fast friends. They were so sweet and super fun to be around right from the beginning, and I knew I just had to have them as my clients. We met on […]

Starting my third year of business comes with so many interesting feelings. I’ve gotten much more experience under my belt and feel like I now can focus more on refining my style, serving my clients well, and giving back to help others who are in the place I was two years ago. I want to […]

I got to fulfill one of my all-time dreams last week, and I still can’t get over it. I have been saving, working hard, and dreaming big about the day I could attend a full photography workshop with one of my favorite photographers, and my dream finally became a reality!! (PSA: don’t give up on […]

Prior to my birthday this year, I had been using a makeshift camera bag (which I was pretty proud of at the time) that consisted of a faux leather Forever 21 bag and a cheaply made Amazon camera bag insert. It did the trick for a while…but then my equipment collection grew, and the strap […]

It’s only been a week since graduation, and I’m already doing some big time reflecting. I’ve hit the ground running with my new part time job and have taken on more weddings than I’ve ever photographed in such a short amount of time. God has been really good, and I think the busyness of this […]

Just a couple days since I graduated college, and y’all I already miss it a little. Is this normal?! I got some major nostalgia as I drove into my first full week of work this morning and realized that I’m not going back to Clemson (as a student, anyways). And while I’m really glad for […]
